RE: WCCP: Web Cache ID 0.0.0.0

Henrik,

One question I'd like a firm answer to, I have heard to install the
ip_wccp module and not to.  Which should I be doing?
My understand is that the 2.6 kernel includes WCCP in the gre module.  I
also understand that the 2.4 kernel started to include it, but I'm not
sure when.  With all of my testing, I have only been using the ip_gre
module included in the kernel source.

Thanks,
Bryan

Then your IOS is running some hybrid between WCCPv1 and WCCPv2... WCCPv1

only has GRE encapsulation mode, while WCCPv2 can negotiate to use
direct 
routing instead..

If the packets are otherwise fine you should only need the normal 
transparent proxy firewalling rules to have these packets delivered to 
Squid.
